Prestyn Smith - Minimum Wage Lyrics

I clocked out at 6.02
Running 12 minutes late just to meet up with you
So why
Am I rushing vacation

I've done this too many times before
Setting time stamps has always felt like a chore
And I just need a calendar to burn up with my reservations

So why can't I tell myself
To run 'til I can't anymore
And it's all fine but I'm just hoping life is worth so much more
Than working
Eight hours a day
For Minimum Wage
Checking prices at gas stations for cheap lemonade

Ride down to the coast
Live life to the most
My boss won't let me show up to work without wearing khakis
Eight hours a day
For minimum wage

Why am I so stressed all the time
I've got thousands of ideas but only two dimes
And I'm too lazy to sit down and try to learn how to invest them
And what's the point of living two different lives
I smile behind a register and then flip the sign
All for some stupid reputation

So why can't I tell myself run
'Til you can't anymore
And it's all fine
But I just know that life is worth so much more
Than working
Eight hours a day
For minimum wage
Checking prices at gas stations for cheap lemonade

Ride down to the coast
Live life to the most
My boss won't let me show up to work without wearing khakis
Eight hours a day for minimum

Be alone
On the road
I'll dunk my head under the water
Touch the sand
Wearing vans
I won't cuff my pants
I'll wear them longer
Hold myself in a different way
I'll hold myself happier than I held myself on the days
I was working

Eight hours a day
For minimum wage
Checking prices at gas stations for cheap lemonade
Ride down to the coast
Live life to the most
But what's the most if I'm not living my life for

Eight hours a day
For minimum wage
Checking prices at gas stations for cheap lemonade
Ride down to the coast
Live life to the most
But what's the most if I'm not living my life for me
Say yeah yeah yeah yeah

Eight hours a day
For minimum wage
Ugh
